description: "Zohra Opoku explores identity, memory, and belonging. In her series Give Me Back My Black Dolls, which she began in 2024, she combines personal memories with historical and cultural experiences. For the SCHIRN, Opoku is creating new works that reflect on her childhood in the GDR and her life between Germany and Ghana — exploring themes of origin and alienation, familiarity and foreignness."
